My mother had no power throughout half her house last week and was in need of an electrician. She called the local electrician, and Dylan came out and found the fault within minutes, leaving my mother very pleased. They pointed out some safety issues at the switchboard and even asked to call a family member to discuss the findings and walk through some suggested solutions. My mother hasn't been doing too well lately, and I really appreciate that they called me to discuss the options. After the discussion, we came to a conclusion, and the team was out there the next day to rectify the issues. I really appreciate that they called before proceeding with the works. My mother is very happy with the work and will use them from now on. Based on my experience, I will also be enquiring about future work at my house. Much appreciated to the local electrician team!

What Should I Do While I Wait For An Emergency Electrician?
After calling one of our after-hours electricians, our team will give you clear instructions on what to do while you wait for our arrival. In any case, here are some general tips that you can undertake while you wait for your electrician:
- Isolate yourself and others from the electrical issue
- If safe to do so, turn your power off from your switchboard
- If safe, remove any obstacles that may hinder the electrical repair
- Please note: if an electrical fault brings on a fire – DO NOT throw water on it. Call triple 000 for the Fire Department, use a fire extinguisher if available and vacate your premises immediately.
How Long Will It Take For An Electrician To Arrive In An Emergency?
Because we have 24-hr electricians working around the clock, our average dispatch time is approximately less than 60 minutes. We are confident that we guarantee an on-time electrician, or we work for free! In the meantime, if it’s a severe emergency issue, you can have a look at the SES’s top electrical safety tips while you wait for assistance.

Why Isn’t My Hot Water System Working?
A malfunctioning hot water system is usually caused by a tripped circuit breaker or a faulty thermostat. Regardless of the issue, The Local Electrician can fix it.
Why Are My Lights Flickering?
If your lights are continuously flickering, it may be due to a loose bulb, loose connection, voltage increase or the type of light. If not correctly handled, this could be a minor or a major electrical fault.
What Do I Do With A Beeping Smoke Alarm?
If your smoke alarm is continuously beeping, it may signal that it needs a battery replacement. It’s also possible that it has reached the end of its life span of 8-10 years. If you need an emergency electrician to install a new one, contact The Local Electrician today!
What Is The Difference Between A Fuse Box And Safety Box?
They both perform the same function, which is the protection of your electrical system. A fuse box protects appliances from electrical spikes while a safety box protects people from general electrical hazards. You can count on The Local Electricians to perform fuse box upgrades!
